Ethical Principles and Publication Policy

The journal is published twice a year, in March and September. The Journal of Quran and Sunnah Studies includes original, scientific studies that comply with scientific standards and have not been published anywhere else in order to contribute to religious sciences. The Editorial Board decides on the publication of studies other than these specified issues.

Articles to be published in the Journal of Quran and Sunnah Studies are subject to preliminary review by the editorial board in terms of their compliance with the journal's publication principles. A double-blind referee system is applied to articles that are deemed "publishable" by the absolute majority of the editorial board.

Articles are reviewed by at least two referees using scientific methods. In order for an article to be published, a "publishable" opinion must be obtained from both referees. Articles that receive a "non-publishable" opinion from both referees are not published. The Editorial Board decides whether to publish articles that receive a "publishable" opinion from both referees as a result of the evaluation based on the scientific referee report and/or whether to send an article that has a negative opinion from one of the referees to the 3rd referee.

If the scientific review of the articles is positive, the Editorial Board decides on the publication priority and planning. Actions contrary to scientific research and publication ethics, plagiarism, forgery, distortion, re-publication, slicing, unfair authorship, etc. are considered crimes. In such cases, the scientific and legal responsibility of the articles belongs to the authors. Our journal does not accept any liability.
The primary publication language of the journal is Turkish. Arabic and English articles will also be accepted. A 200-300 word Turkish abstract must be added to foreign language articles.

Articles sent to the journal must not have been published in another publication before or must not be in the evaluation phase for publication.
Authors sending articles to our journal must have an academic title of PhD student or above. It must be ensured that other authors whose names will be written in the article have contributed to the research. It is against scientific ethics to show people who have no academic contribution as additional authors or to list the authors based on non-scientific criteria such as title, age and gender without considering the order of contribution.
The acceptable similarity rate in plagiarism reports of articles sent for publication in our journal is 15%. Studies that exceed this rate in terms of the content characteristics of the article can enter the publication process with the approval of the editor.
If the articles are produced from unpublished notification texts and master's or doctoral theses, this issue should be stated on the first page of the study.
In the articles to be sent, the types of articles (compilation/research/commentary) etc. should be included on the first page.

In addition to the name, title, institution information of the article author, the telephone number, e-mail address and ORCID number should also be included on the first page.
In surveys and attitude research conducted within the scope of a scientific study, the explicit consent of the participants or, if the research is to be conducted in an institution, the permission of the institution should also be obtained and these permissions should be included on the first page.

Authors should take into consideration the Scientific Research and Publication Ethics Directive specified by the Council of Higher Education.

Only one article of the article authors can be published in each issue of the journal.
